Song To The Sea
DJ Antoine vs. Mad Mark feat. James Gruntz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I beg you raise your water to the feet of mine
so I can dip my toes, remember what it's like
just feeling free and having all the time I need
THIS IS WHY I SING A SONG TO THE SEA
I think of how I've cursed those rotten old love things
just riding on nobody tells me where to be
THIS IS WHY I SING A SONG TO THE SEA
the dancing dunes are doing dishes with my brain
the disco drums are driving discords down to drain
I remain a bit then go on a bit, the tide comes and goes as I breath
THIS IS WHY I SING A SONG TO THE SEA
been waiting all my life for something that's going to stay
been waiting all my life for something that won't go away
I thought everything's dissolving, now found something that is going to be
THIS IS WHY I SING A SONG TO THE SEA
now I'm back to grey town
the city lights arise
they're burning my soul down
I slowly recognize
that king prawns on concrete
ain't something that I need
I never felt at ease
with all this city heat
THIS IS WHY I SING A SONG TO THE SEA
The lyrics to "Song to the Sea" by DJ Antoine vs. Mad Mark feat. James Gruntz describe the desire to escape the confines of city life and return to the simplicity and freedom of being by the sea.

The sea provides that sense of freedom and escape from the rules and restraints of society. The bridge expresses the idea that the sea has a calming effect on the singer's mind, as the sounds of the waves and the rhythm of the tide soothe their soul.
Overall, "Song to the Sea" conveys a message of wanting to return to a simpler and more natural state of being, away from the stresses and anxieties of modern life. The sea represents a form of escape and peace, offering a source of calm and tranquillity in a world that can often be overwhelming.
